Decide what I need to know? Wow. Does any one of these men know this is the 21st century? And okay, not only did I hear gunshots and see dead bodies again, what was that now, 4? But my supposed fiancé had just very frankly made the fact that he liked to see fear on my face known to his brother, his employees, and a guy who maybe wasn’t making it out of the office alive. I was now being ushered, in skimpy pajamas and Azriel’s robe, to his father’s house.

When I got there, Lisa was in the doorway to receive me, literally. She hugged me and pulled me into the house, ignoring Dario and the two muscle guys behind him, “Are you okay?”

I heard Dario on the phone, “Bro, we’re here,” Then he looked to Lisa, “Yeah, she’s fine. Lisa has her.” Then Dario and the two guys disappeared into the office.

I nodded, not knowing what to say because I didn’t know what she knew. She was in a robe, too, her hair pulled up into a messy bun. She walked me to her kitchen where an older grandmotherly-looking bl

    Claire’s POVWhat a reunion. And what a morning after. Ho boy; he was all over me, waking me up with his tongue just like that first morning. What a way to wake up! I had a fleeting thought about the fact that he’d eventually want me to reciprocate. After what had happened with that guy in Mexico, could I ever reciprocate with Azriel or anyone for that matter? I didn’t even know the guy’s name. I didn’t want to know. I wanted to forget. There was so much I wanted to forget but so much I didn’t think I could ever put out of my mind completely.“Baby?” he was looking up at me.I hadn’t realized it but I was crying while he was doing that to me. He settled beside me and pulled me to his chest.“What’s wrong?” he asked.“Sorry,” I said softly and wiped my eyes with my fingertips.“What?” he gave me a squeeze.“So much,” I whispered into his chest.“Tell me,” he kissed my forehead.I was surprised that he had stopped. I was surprised that he was looking at me with so much tenderness.“It

    I let out a half laugh, half cry. He shrugged kind of apologetically. I shook my head.“She says surprise her,” he said and ended the call.He pulled out and left Rosita at the supermarket and drove me back to Azriel’s house. That phone started ringing from my pocket. I took it out.“A” calling. Great. I stared at it. After the third ring, Earl cleared his throat, “I’d answer that, Miss.”I didn’t. I couldn’t do anything but stare at the screen. It stopped at 5 rings. Then Earl’s phone started ringing and he said a mix of yes Sirs and no Sirs all the way back. When we pulled inside the gate, which Earl appeared to have engaged somehow from within the vehicle. He stopped in front of the gate and sat there for what seemed like the longest time. He dialed the phone and said, “What’s your ETA? Shit. Can’t do it. Won’t work. No, that’s not the plan. Can’t. We will have to reschedule.” he growled into the phone and then hung it up and finally drove in through the area between the gates.“Y

    “Oh! Please stop”, I shoved him against his rock hard chest, but he didn’t move an inch.He laughed again, making me crack a small smile in his favour which I hated. My heart caved in my chest of its own accord as I took in his carefree, happy expression which really was a phenomenon because he was almost either frowning or glaring.For some inexplicable reason, his happiness made my heart grow smaller and sadder.I tried not to let the brief moment of sudden sadness show as I pulled up my dress, trying to cover my chest.“You didn’t choose that dress, did you?”, he suddenly observed, making me want to face palm for not being subtle enough about adjusting my dress.“No, I didn’t”, I replied, my voice small.“That fucking slimebag. You’re not buying that”, he growled out, making me raise a brow at him.I did not need Daniel intervening between me and his uncle to just worsen things between me and that man who I really needed to keep happy…. for both my and my family’s sake.“I have to

    The time was just right. When he stopped the sound, the elevator opened the door with a "ding" sound.The summer saw Gu Shengrui at a glance, not that he was too conspicuous, but that there were only two people in the whole swimming pool. One is him, and the other, needless to say, is the one she is going to step on today.So, "just step on it as if you don't know Gu Shao"?

    "You don't want to stay here anymore, we can leave," Lucian suggested calmly as he walked ahead of Amelia. She didn't mean to refuse to help but she just couldn't stand Yolanda's arrogance anymore. "Amelia?" Jasper walked in from the outside. Ignoring everyone's staring, he grabbed Amelia's hand and said, "May I have a word with you?" All of a sudden, Jasper had grabbed her and before she could even break free, he was already pulling her away. "Mr. Jasper, don't you think we should be more careful about what we do and say in public?" Lucian said coolly as he maintained his grip on Amelia's other hand. Jasper looked a little embarrassed. He released Amelia's hand and bowed his head to apologize. "Sorry, Lucian. I forgot my manners. I was in a hurry." "If you're here to ask my wife to be your fiancée's bridesmaid, you'd better save your energy. I just don't want my wife to be aggrieved anymore." Lucian was acting as if it was his responsibility to protect Amelia. But the irony was

    The party was still going on at the Mo mansion. The crowd gathered and everyone enjoyed the beat of the drums. The wedding cars were decorated with bright red roses and dolls hugging each other on the front. Amelia felt quite uncomfortable at the sight of the red roses. Soon, the main wedding car arrived and it pulled over in front of the Mo mansion. Jasper got off the car. He looked absolutely refreshed and joyous in his beige suit. He was laughing merrily. The word "groom" was written across his chest. Amelia stood behind the crowd and watched the man she had once loved accept congratulations for his marriage. Amelia was quite a vision in her red coat, with her long curly hair, and made-up face. Needless to say, she stood out amongst the crowd. As his eyes swept through the crowd, Jasper found Amelia standing in the distance. The smile on his face disappeared at once. He bowed apologetically to the people surrounding him before walking towards Amelia. "Amelia, thank you for comin

    Are you hungry? I'm going to cook." Amelia was surprised when she heard herself say this. Lucian, who had just closed his eyes, opened his eyes and asked in disbelief, "You can cook?" "A bit. Of course, rich people like you don't really care for the home-cooked meals that I know how to make. That's OK. I cook for myself," Amelia hurriedly explained. She was easy to be softhearted and couldn't bear seeing someone exhausted in front of her. It was her instinct to take care of others. Lucian raised the corners of his mouth, not saying a word. He couldn't stop himself from smiling. After Amelia familiarized herself with the kitchen, she finally grabbed all the ingredients she needed and started preparing. Lucian was still in the living room. When he smelled the food Amelia was cooking, he felt as if his exhaustion had disappeared. He stared at the clock, lost in thought. He felt like he was in a time loop-like it was five years ago and he would stand by the kitchen door, hands in his

    Amelia thought that she wouldn't be able to sleep well since it was her first time sleeping there. However, to her surprise, she had a pretty good sleep that night.It was a Monday so Amelia was just getting ready to go to work. When she headed downstairs, her phone started ringing it was a message from Courtney. She was worried because she didn't see Amelia at the bar that night. Amelia quickly texted back. When she raised her head, she found Lucian standing in front of her and staring at her.Amelia was a little stunned and her face flushed out of embarrassment. Lucian was wearing a nice, crisp suit. His other hand was clutching an expensive-looking leather briefcase while the other was shoved in the pocket of his pants. He looked quite handsome."I've made some arrangements. You don't need to go back to your old job anymore. From now on, you're going to be working at the Zhan Group with me," he said plainly. He then glanced at her from head to toe and added, "Your clothes are in th

    As a lesson from her drunkenness, Amelia decided she wasn't going to believe everything Lucian said which she thought was reasonable."Why are you staring at me? Just order the food." He stared at Amelia who seemed mad."Stop talking." Amelia sat down with her hand on her forehead. She was a mess right now as her head was still spinning from everything that happened this morning."All right. After dinner, I'll take you to the mall. If you don't want to go shopping, just tell me your sizes and I'll ask someone to buy some clothes for you." After the dishes were served on the table, Lucian took his chopsticks and began eating. 'My sizes?'Amelia hugged herself immediately and said warily, "I have my own clothes to wear. You don't need to worry about me!"Lucian looked up and said in a mocking tone, "No one would steal your clothes even if you threw them out in the trash. Since you're now my wife, you need to change your clothes. What you have right now is too shabby and people might tal

    The car left the rich and noble villa district and drove off to Amelia's rented apartment.Amelia didn't really plan on going back to that place at all. Staying in that apartment, she would think of Jasper, which made her feel really sad. But she had no other choice. There was nowhere else for her to go.Upon pulling up in front of the apartment complex, Amelia acted completely snobbish towards Lucian. "Mr. Lucian, my home is just in front of you. You can drop me off here," she said.'We're only a couple by virtue of a contract. There's no need for him to actually pretend to be my husband and escort me all the way inside,' she thought.Lucian looked around and saw that there were no residential buildings around. "Our agreement says that I am your husband," he said to Amelia with a thoughtful smile on his face. "Perhaps, I should walk you to the door," he continued. Amelia shook her head. "It's true that we made an agreement, but we really don't have to keep up with this husband and wi

    The bedroom was finally quiet, much to Amelia's relief. Her heart had started beating a mile a minute when she saw the cold look on Lucian's face. Her ivory-colored face flushed like a porcelain doll. Noticing that she clenched her fists tightly, Lucian figured she might have become way too nervous. So he put on a smile and said, "They've already left.""Uh..." Amelia answered softly. She opened her eyes wide and asked anxiously, "Where are the photos? Give them to me!"She reached out her tiny hand toward him, looking petite and small as if she was a doll. She had her eyebrows knitted together, which made her difficult to take seriously as she only looked like an angry child."I am very helpful and this is just the start. Plus, if you agree to become my wife, I'll keep these photos and I promise you that no one else is going to see them." Lucian looked at Amelia and flashed her a knowing smile."What did you just say?" Amelia collapsed and shouted. "You bastard! Stop trying to fool m

    The next morning, the room was washed by the bright sunlight. The beautiful morning in the luxurious villa was awakened by a rush of footsteps."Mr. Lucian, Mr. Lucian, wake up!" The butler tried to wake up Lucian who was still in a deep slumber. After staying up late last night, Lucian struggled to open his eyes in the morning. Yet, eyes half-open, he could spot the middle-aged man sitting in the wheelchair with a solemn face. "Lucian, what are you doing?" A sharp female voice broke the silence of this morning and woke up Amelia who was still suffering from hangover."Oh my God! My head hurts." Amelia touched her head and sat upon the bed. Slowly she opened her eyes and was dumbfounded. Amelia looked around to explore the unfamiliar setting. She felt rather intimidated to be surrounded by a middle-aged man and woman. With much difficulties Amelia found her voice back and said, "Where am I? Why am I here?"Her words made all the heads in the room turn towards her. They looked more sur

    Amelia was welcomed with harsh winter winds biting into her skin as soon as she stepped out of Jasper's villa. Suddenly, Amelia realized that she was wearing thin clothes. She clenched her hands, and her eyes were sore. Soon, a pearl of tear dropped from the corners of her eyes.Amelia didn't feel sad for Jasper's betrayal. Rather, she felt hurt as she thought about the cherished moments she spent with him in the past five years spent. What she had considered to be most precious turned out to be a mirage.After wandering aimlessly on the streets for a few hours, Amelia was about to go back to her rental house. But when she thought of the room full of memories of her and Jasper, her feet suddenly felt too heavy to move towards that direction. At that moment, she could only think of her friend, Courtney. Amelia then called her to share this bleak incident with her friend."Oh my God! Who is this, calling me on this special day? Haven't you gone out on a date with Jasper? How come you ar
